Could The Inability To Walk In A 4 Year Old Be Due To Viral Infection?

Hi, I have a 4 yr old daughter who had a viral infection in January that affected her leg muscles and she wouldn t walk for I think 4 days. At that time we went to the dr and they ordered blood work, and since then we have been repeating blood work every 3 wks. (I don t have actual results with me, as I just reqested them today) however the dr has told me that her HDL and AST levels continue to be high for her age, and he has ordered a ultra sound of her liver/spleen. He also suggested that she consult with an oncologist....obviously Im frantic now... without knowing exactly the levels what is your opinion?
